Klamath had many men in England prior to invasion, and -a it is presumed that these men are either in the invasion itself . " or close to the English end of this gigantic operation. It is ' certain that our men over there, whatever their assign- mcnU, are discharging them with the ability and bravery that have marked the partlci- . EPLEY pation of Klamath men in every major action in the global war. It is with a feeling of humility that we at home think of these men of ours in the thick of the struggle. Any contribution that we can , make shrivels in comparison with theirs. But let's not get the idea it shrivels to noth t ing. Everything counts, and there is something J to be done here in addition to hoping and pray . ing for our fighting men and the cause they j represent. Those who help produce war mater ' ials, those who contribute to sound home front economy by doing their Job well, those who do . Red Cross and other civilian war work, those i who lend a hand to a service man all of these are helping. Every bond buyer is likewise making a con i tribution, and that can and should be unanimous J among all earning people of our community. , If it is, Klamath will go far over its quota in ' the Fifth War Loan, and the men who are . carrying the brunt of the struggle for us will know that we are not forgetting. It is a tangible way ox oacKing uiem up. I MALLON No Doa Season THE strong opposition among local sportsmen and conservationists to a season on female deer in the Klamath-Lake area bore fruit in a decision of the game commission last weekend in line with the general sentiment here. - This decision, while tentative, is expected to get a final stamp of approval at an adjourned commission meeting June 23. Game commissioners gave the most sym- pathetic and careful consideration to the Klam ath arguments, and their decision was in line with a policy of caution in dealing with the intricate problem of managing the size of the Klamath-Lake deer herd., It gives time for a thorough study of the results of the doe kill ;, last year. We believe that a long-time program . which may be formulated on the basis of thor ough and careful investigation wUl receive the support of the local sportsmen. By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, June 11 A latent but tre mendous popular Interest out in the country over the confused status of the At lantic charter as it faces leftist ideologies in war-torn Europe nas been freshly detected by the senate. An astonishing number of requests have come in for copies of a speech by New Hampshire's Republican Sena tor Bridges, made in the sen ate May 23. Recently, the number was above 80,000, and it will run above 100,000. About 40,000 of the first re quests came from protestant groups', 10,000 more from Cath olics, the rest from other sources. The public may recall the address as a criti cism of Mr. Roosevelt giving naval vessels to Russia when Churchill would not let the Italian navy go, and inasmuch as we still face a great naval war in the Pacific in which Russia is not involved. This was only the introduction of the Bridges' speech which reached the headlines. The bulk of it was a less sensational inquiry into the status of the Atlantic charter and four freedoms directed to Mr. Roosevelt and asking him: "Have you lost the initiative in Europe?" Italian News Confuses THE news from Italy lately has only added to the popular confusion. The withdrawal of the king in favor of Crown Prince Umbcrto as "Lieutenant General of the Realm" has received varied interpretations. An Italian-American labor leader in Boston asserted the king was under communistic influence, but Umbcrto's position is being described as fascist by the liberal press. The pronouncements of the Vatican immedi ately after the freeing of Rome revealed no inkling of its political knowledge or intentions. The Communist Leader Browder has broad cast on our radio domestically an implication that some Catholic churchmen have accepted the validity of Russian indications of espousal of religion as against the atheism and agnostic ideologies formerly promoted and imposed on the Russians by the state. Incidentally but not necessarily significantly, Mr. Browder closed his address with an appeal to God in some connec tion or other. The only thing clear, therefore, is that there is confusion therefore no agreement. Valid and authentic interpretations beyond this may be a long time coming. It was supposed to be a laboratory for work ing out the conflicts, but the political re-organization there so far has been too difficult for words, at least any official words from Messrs. Roosevelt, Churchill, or Stalin.' The communists are in control of almost all the European underground movements, and are, therefore, the most active political Influence we are freeing not only in Italy, France, and Po land, but throughout Europe. SIDE GLANCES COURT SPLITS ON HAR TZEL CASE DECISION w. me rr i wwitt, we. t m. wtm wt, per "It's a wnr bond, Victoria, a special bonus for you those three-and-n-half -minute eggs were just right 1", LOAN 01 E' T 0 BEGIN IN TEXARKANA Fishing for Service Men SINCE appearance of a note in this column the other day about? fishing equipment for serv- ice men stationed in this area, along with ' a suggestion that local fishermen take guests along with them on their trips, this desk has ; received several calls indicating that such a program is well under way. W. J. Kessler, head of the Klamath Sports men s association, said the plan had been taken up in his organization, and that his personal office can be used as a clearing house in this connection. Mrs. Mary Case at the selective ; service office has started a movement to collect fishing equipment for service men. George Mc Intyre at the First National bank saw to it that ' a group of men used his cabin and equipment at Diamond lake over the weekend. Those are Just reports we have heard. There is apparently a considerable amount of effort being given individually in this community along this line, and it is all fine and commend- , able. " Briefs from the Pocket File DR. LOWELL T. COGGESHALL, chief medi ,o1?i officer at the Marine Barracks, flew ; 120,000 miles in licking the malaria problem for ; Pan-American Airways in Africa . . . Lt. Com . mander Benny Turner, executive officer at the Klamath naval air station, used to be publicity man for Aviatrix Amelia Earhart . . . He now rents a house owned by Dr. and Mrs. Samuel Earhart of Klamath Falls, kin of the missing flier . , . Without announcement, the investigat ing committee has sent to higher authorities its report on the shooting of a Japanese evacuee at Tulelake by a military sentry . . . Frank Ramsey, big KUHS football coach who left Fri ' ' day for the marines, expects to get a perfect fit in a marine uniform . . . Reason: he's so big, they probably will have to make a special one for him, right to measurement. The Meaning of Freedom ALWAYS in the past, they have used the words "freedom" and "democracy" in a far different sense than we do, so documentary evidence thus far has done little to change the confusion. Most communists still look upon free dom as meaning just one thing freedom from fascism if not capitalism, or, in fact, freedom from democracy as we understand it. Also, Russia in the past has changed its ideo logical course temporarily with its fingers crossed behind its back, solely to get Its way, and when this purpose was accomplished, it would revert to its original purpose. This is the precise official explanation of Stalin's friend ship neutrality treaty with Hitler when Poland was invaded and Britain was drawn into the war. Suspicions, therefore, are natural and will not easily be dispelled. If the transferring of an unexplained title of "lieutenant general" from the king to Umberto (later to be passed, some say, to Umberto's son) becomes a cover for an Italian communist radical grasp for power, it is one thing. If it becomes only a cover for the confusion (as it most likely is) then the fruits of war are being ripened only on the outside peeling, and worms at the core will continue to work. One Christian Force YET in Italy, there Is one force which is cer tainly Christian in its ideals the ideals which Mr. Roosevelt rightly described May 27, 1941 (quoted in the Bridges speech) as being the dignity of the human being, of the majesty of the human soul, in a world where moral standards are measured by treachery and bri bery and fifth columnists." (The president was then speaking of a communist dictatorship.) It was this point of Christian ideology which brought so many inquiries for the Bridges speech. The Vatican is not only "the best informed institution on earth," but well might be a great influence In Italy, Poland, France, etc., where there seem to be few Roosevelt democrats, and as far as I can see it, the main power present to be used for maintenance of the Christian ideology along with the Church of England and various protestant denominations on the conti nent. This being (he second most important sub ject in the world, second onlv for our success in France and due to the fact that I raised it at the outset when it was un popular, and have pursued it without neglect in the face of criticism I will have more on it tomorrow.

Justice Murphy, who wrote the majority opinion, said that while Ideas expressed by ItarUel were "odious," therti was not sufficient evidence to show that ho intend ed by the pamphlets to hrlnn about Insubordination or other disturbances In the military serv ices. "No direct or atfirmutive m. peals are made to that effect and no mention Is mode of military personnel or of ncrsnnx n-ulstr-r. cd under the selective training and servico uct," Murphy said. , . "They (the pamphlets) contained instead, vicious and unreasoning attacks on one of our military allies, flMtirnnt appeals to false and sinister racial theories and gross libels of the president." Justice Heed, with Justice Frankfurter, DuiikUm and Jack son concurring, dissented, con tending there was ample evi deuce to warrant a conviction.
